Hi I'm New but was wondering if anyone would
like to help me out.
About for a month or so i was able to use
the wireless signal of my D-LINK Airplus
Xtreme G wireless router but one night i was
on the Internet browsing threw my emails and typing
on instant messenger the usual and then the next
morning my Wireless Internet no longer worked.
Before i would get full bars and full reception
no matter where i was in my house and now
even when i put my laptop right next to my
wireless router i still only get 3 bars, would
anyone know what would cause this, or help point
me on how i would go about fixing this?
I asked a friend awhile ago and took his advice
of unplugging and plugging the power cord back
in, and fiddling with the Athena but that didn't
seem to do anything.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

On the Laptop in question could you see any
other local wireless networks prior to your problem?
Can you still see them now? Take it somewhere
you know has a network. No need to conect, just
to check your machines ok.
Laptop aerial/screen wires/ribons pass through one of
the lid hinges, and may have broken with use? I
had a screen ribon go on an old IBM T21
last year.
Have you accsess to another Laptop to test your
D-Link? Take it to a mates house with a known
working WiFi Laptop/PC, plug it in - see if they
can see it?
